Located at the West Lake lakeside square (Xihu Tiandi), the project is designed to create a warm space with lush vegetation in order to defend from its surrounding buildings which seem unapproachable.
The glass roof was a double-layered structure of square steel tubes before renovation. The design team took advantage of the structure by adding wood beams and formed an interesting woven texture. Additional wood beams interweave with original structure and create a comfortable atmosphere with a rich experience of light and shadow.
Distinct treatments of the roof divide dining area into two types. The space defined by the structure of woven wood is bright and open, and is fit for customers who enjoy sunshines, while the inner area is fitter for customers who prefer quietness.
